Volunteer Driver Mentors Needed

Amie Maga from Migrant Action Trust

From the countryside of Burma to Open Road in New Zealand: For Thdah, a restricted licence means she can apply for more jobs. She can easily drop her kids to school and she is less worried about needing to rush to clinic/hospital especially with one sickly child. Despite the language barrier and being scared to drive in busy roads, Thdah gained confidence to drive with the support of qualified instructor Susan Matencio and volunteer interpreter who supported her during driving lessons.

If you already got 2 years NZ full licence and keen to help learners from refugee background in our OPEN ROAD Refugee Driver Training Programme, join our team of volunteer mentors and support persons for test day! Come along to our next session 5 OCTOBER on DRIVING TEST TIPS and NZ ROAD CODE REFRESHER www.facebook.com...

Age Well Kiwi

Mabel from Hillsborough

We are a new support group for seniors. We meet once a month to share our experience and discuss our challenges & concerns.

With the growth of our ageing population, and more seniors living alone, this group would explore and advocate/address the social, emotional and physical needs of our seniors, and promote positive and healthy ageing.

We meet on the first Saturday afternoon of the month in Mt. Roskill. Our next meeting will be 3 Jan 2026.

If you are interested in joining us and contribute your ideas, knowledge, experience, talents and resources, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us at agewellkiwi@gmail.com.

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I dance in the sky with green and gold, a spectacle few are lucky to behold; I’m best seen in the south, a celestial sight—what am I, lighting up the New Zealand night?
